Chapter 185: Chapter 17 Little Spy

Not to mention the stir caused by Han Shouxin’s words at the Han Family on the other side, the news from the Han Family did not trouble Shen Chi either. After filling his stomach, he cuddled up with his son and went to sleep.

"Son, was Mom happy when Dad wasn’t home?" In a place Lin Xiaoguai couldn’t see, supposedly asleep, Shen Chi was whispering in his son’s ear.

Little Niangao pondered for a moment and said softly, "I think Mom smiled less when Dad wasn’t around."

Before Shen Chi could grin, Little Niangao continued, "That time we went to the hospital to see Aunt, Aunt and elder aunt talked a lot, and a general named Han Kuang entered the hospital. After coming back, Mom seemed troubled, not very happy."

Little Niangao didn’t notice his dad’s changing expression and excitedly asked, "Dad, does that general fight wars like on TV? I heard they say he’s very powerful, so can he perform the Somersault Cloud? Can he do the 72 Transformations?"

This child was much smarter than his peers, his thinking ability could almost compete with that of a seven or eight-year-old; but after all, he was still young and often took the scenes he saw on TV seriously.

In the past, Shen Chi would surely have laughed at this point, but now he felt somewhat depressed.

"Son, what’s so great about that general? Sooner or later, your dad will also become a general, and then you’ll be a general’s son," Shen Chi said, unable to bear hearing his son admire that man.

Shen Chi still had quite a high credibility in Little Niangao’s heart; on hearing this, he didn’t doubt but asked, "Then Dad, can you perform the Somersault Cloud and do the 72 Transformations?"

Hearing this, Shen Chi felt powerless, "Son, the Somersault Cloud and 72 Transformations are something a monkey can do."

He thought this would put his son off, but instead, he looked disappointed and said, "Dad, why didn’t you make me into a monkey?"

Shen Chi burst into laughter and consolation, "Little Niangao, if you were a monkey, you wouldn’t be Mom and Dad’s eldest son."

"Is that so..." Little Niangao struggled with the thought, then sighed and said, "Then never mind, I guess I won’t be a monkey."

Yet, his little expression was still filled with regret.

Shen Chi felt a bit awkward and tried to change the subject, "Do Uncle and elder aunt come by often?"

Little Niangao hesitated, nodded, then shook his head and said, "Uncle doesn’t come often, elder aunt comes a lot and always brings a lot of food and cloth. Brother Ping’an also came twice."

Shen Chi’s expression imperceptibly eased, "And what about Aunt, is she nice to Little Niangao?"

Despite already acknowledging these two biological siblings, having suffered persecution from Liu Yuzhi, he had always been a suspicious person; even with close blood relatives, without a foundation of feelings, he dared not trust completely.

This trip to Myanmar, although partly to test out the recovery of the injury on his leg, was also a small probe.

—Others might not understand Wanwan’s intelligence as clearly as he does. They might inadvertently blurt out something in front of her, trying to sound clever, and he could catch onto some clues easily.

If he didn’t know his wife was not the kind of person who liked to meticulously analyze every word she heard from others, nor did she like to fuss over every detail with him, he wouldn’t have his son act as a little spy.

"Did anyone show ill intentions toward Mom?" Fortunately, he had incidentally discovered that his son had very accurate instincts, especially sensitive to the intentions of those around them. If it weren’t for his timely stepping back on the train last time, not just the face but possibly even the eyes could have been injured.

"There were two."

Hearing Little Niangao say this, Shen Chi almost jumped up. Could it be that Han Shouxin and Han Shouzhen were insincere towards him?

Before he could feel saddened, Little Niangao said, "But I don’t know them. They seem to be relatives of General Han Kuang, two women, one a bit older than Mom and one much older, but their ill intentions were very faint."

Little Niangao’s intuition had significantly improved through Shen Chi’s private coaching, from being initially clueless to having some grasp over it now.

Hearing this, Shen Chi guessed who they might be and scoffed, then asked, "Then have any unfamiliar uncles approached Mom?"

"There were many." Little Niangao counted on his fingers and said, "Once, when coming back from the street, an uncle offered to help Mom carry things, but Mom refused; Mom always meets some young uncles when she takes me for walks, there are 1, 2, 3, 4... totaling up to 17, once my ball rolled away and an uncle helped pick it up and then took the chance to talk to Mom; once at the vegetable market, a uncle seeing Mom was beautiful even undercharged her by 20 cents; the other day on the tram, a young man blushed and gave up his seat to Mom..."
